Description

"You cannot shake hands with a clenched fist." -Indira Gandhi

I was going to post a photo similar to the previous two, but this little detail caught my eye so I cropped in on it a bit closer. It calls to mind the head and shoulders of a person, or a clenched fist. The shallow depth of field is from shooting in super macro mode very close to the package's surface, creating the tiny area in focus and blurred edges, not from any postwork on my part. ----- Thanks for your torn comments on my last upload, Damaged In Transit.

fine composition, excellent use of selective focus to isolate the primary area of interest. Nice juxtaposition of line and shadows

I saw the outline of head and shoulders too! It would be nothing without that great shadow! There's the eye again! ; )

Cool extreme macro capture, love to see the shallow DOF like an intersecting sphere leaving a bit of the brown paper as well as the white paper sharp! Impressive work, Kort! :)

A good explanation of what your eyes see. It sure makes one think about finding how you see it, then exploring it for other meanings. Got me staring for a long time.
